Apostates and Honor Violence ft. Hari Parekh
from Speaking of Cults · host Chris Shelton
This week, I am joined by psychologist Hari Parekh from the UK, author of the first actual academic study done on the topic of apostasy and hidden honor-based violence that is perpetuated against family and friends who have renounced their religious faith (among many other reasons). We discuss this subject in detail, how academia has failed us on this up to now and how hopefully we can now start seeing a sea change in how academia deals with destructive cults and abusive behavior. Hari Parekh’s paper The post Sensibly Speaking Podcast #246: Apostates and Honor Violence ft. Hari Parekh appeared first on The Sensibly Speaking Podcast.
